Abstract:
Major consequences of untreated severe mitral regurgitation (MR) includes heart failure, ventricular remodeling and pulmonary hypertension leading to significant morbidity and mortality. MitraClip is the most widely used device for treatment of severe MR. To overcome some of the shortcomings of MitraClip, novel devices like PASCAL mitral valve repair system are developed. We performed a single arm meta-analysis for patients with severe mitral regurgitation (MR) undergoing PASCAL mitral valve repair system. The results showed that 93.8% patients had reduction in MR grade, with an average operative time of 88 min and an average increase of 86.33 m in 6-min walk test.
